Abstract
Driving is a multifaceted skill governed by complex psychological and physiological mechanisms. Transitioning from left-side to right-side driving entails a reconfiguration of motor habits, perceptual awareness, and cognitive processing. This study examines the cognitive challenges and procedural adaptations encountered by individuals who switch from left-side to right-side driving. Anchored in theoretical frameworks such as interference theory, procedural memory, set switching, recency effect, and muscle memory, the study explores how deeply ingrained habits may hinder performance and what cognitive strategies assist in successful adaptation. Using structured interviews and questionnaire-based tools, this study aims to understand the behavioral, cognitive, and emotional components involved in this skill transition.
